Under the Eye of the Storm: A Novel | 
pickJohn Hershey, known for the unforgettable “Hiroshima,” wrote this 1967 novel and it was something of a palette cleanser for me: lean story, confident prose, time capsule characterization. The plot? Two middle age couples with troubled marriages sail through a hurricane. I couldn‘t put it down. Roll your eyes at the outdated sixties gender politics and enjoy with a glass of Cutty Sark on a wet, windy evening.
Hamlet The Curry Sark line is right on the money. Well done. 4y
